God loves to give new names to people. Abram and Sarai became Abraham and Sarah. Jacob became Israel. Simon became Peter. Saul became Paul. In Heaven we will receive a new name.
God has many names – The Word, Alpha and Omega, Bright and Morning Star, I Am.
Each new stage of my life has brought me a new name – Daughter, Sister, Friend, Wife, Mother and Writer are a very few examples.
Some of our names are true – Child of God, Friend of God, Beloved.
Some of our names are lies – Stupid, Ugly, Useless, Screw-up.
There is great power given when a name is bestowed, or one is bestowed upon us.
What names have you been given? Which are true?
